Guangdong TV has produced a large-scale comprehensive program called "Thousands of Purples and Thousands of Reds" by drawing on TVB's "Happy Tonight", the program is very rich in content, integrating different themes such as evening parties, repertoire, thematic cross talk sketches, singing contests, master of ceremonies competitions, family interactive games, etc., such as the unforgettable "Uncle Le and Shrimp Boy" for Guangdong audiences, "Provincial and Hong Kong Cup Rising Star Singing Contest", "Big OK Screen Master of Ceremonies Competition" and so on are all created by the program.
From the early 80s to the early 90s, Guangdong TV can be said to be one of the most powerful local TV stations in the mainland, or even one of them, in addition to Guangdong itself, including several neighboring provinces, even in the whole country has a certain influence. Therefore, the host of Guangdong TV was also a smash hit at that time, and the host of the "Thousands of Purples and Thousands of Reds" program was even more radiant.
However, in the 21st century, the good times belonging to Guangdong TV have long become a dream bubble, and most of the hosts of the "Thousands of Purples and Thousands of Reds" programs that were once popular among Guangdong audiences have disappeared, and the other two have said goodbye to this world, I don't know if everyone still remembers them!
When it comes to the host of "Thousands of Purples and Thousands of Reds", we have to first mention its number one hero, Tan Guozhi. Tan Guozhi was born in 1943, he is not only the main planner of the show, but even the entire host team is basically formed by him. Zhong Xinning was found by him from the Guangdong Provincial ** Quyi Troupe, Fan Yuchan and Huang Wanling were found by him from the Guangdong Broadcasting School, and Wang Yifei was found by him from the Guangzhou local propaganda team.
In the entire Chinese mainland, Tan Guozhi is a well-deserved "Taishan Beidou" in the variety show industry, so he also won the gold medal of the "National Radio and Television Host Pioneer Award", and in 1990, in order to make the "Ten Thousand Purple Thousand Reds" program better developed, he chose to selflessly give way to Chen Weicong. In 2016, at the age of 73, he was diagnosed with terminal cancer and eventually left everyone.
Zhong Xinning was born in 1946, he and He Baowen, Li Yueling, Guo Fengkai, Li Yanling, Lin Hongyun and others, are the first generation of "Cantonese cross talk master" Huang Junying**, he has starred in cross talk sketches, and is also an excellent editor, such as the work "Fat Rice" that Cantonese people are familiar with is written by him.
However, Zhong Xinning's most familiar identity is the host, his hosting style is both calm and generous and humorous at the same time, with a little bit of Huang Junying's shadow, and later he also followed Tan Guozhi's footsteps and retreated behind the scenes, and created classic programs such as "Tomorrow's Star" and "Survival Challenge" as a director, and now he has long since retired.
Fan Yuchan, who had not officially graduated that year, was brought to the program "Thousands of Purples and Thousand Reds" by Tan Guozhi together with her classmate Huang Wanling, and later Huang Wanling was robbed by the news department of Guangdong TV to be a news anchor, so she became the only "variety show sister" on Zhujiang TV.
When she was still a newcomer, Tan Guozhi often taught her how to "hold on to life", and she quickly conquered a generation of audiences through her beautiful and generous image. Around 1986, Fan Yuchan gave up her glamorous job, chose to leave Guangdong TV, and immigrated overseas, and it was rumored on the Internet that she had already returned to Shanghai to settle down, but this news was not confirmed.
With Fan Yuchan leaving for a long time, Wang Yifei, who had only joined "Thousands of Purples and Thousands of Reds", became the second female pillar. Many old viewers think that Wang Yifei is the most elegant and stable and generous variety show host in the 40-year history of Pearl River Channel, when she hosted the first "Provincial and Hong Kong Cup Rising Star Singing Contest" and the second "Yangcheng New Year's Celebration", she and Wang Mingquan , Zheng Yuling , Shen Dianxia and other "big sisters" stood together, and she did not lose her aura at all.
In the six or seven years when Wang Yifei became popular, it was the peak period of the development of Pearl River Terrace, so her beautiful figure was also deeply imprinted in the minds of countless people. It's a pity that 30 years ago, at the age of 29, she left the host industry, and many rumors say that the reason for her resignation was due to the defeat of the dispute with Chen Xuran's first sister. It is said that after many years of overseas travel, she returned to Guangzhou to run a beauty business in the early 21st century.
Chen Weicong, like Jiang Xuehong, the female anchor of "630 News", is the first batch of artists trained by Guangdong TV, and debuted in the first artist training class of Zhujiang TV in 1986, and he also graduated with the first place, which can be said to be a veritable "son of Tianjiao" of Zhujiang TV. Over the years since his debut, his talent has been unanimously praised by all Guangdong audiences, and later, although he has a mediocre level of professionalism, he can make good use of his eloquence to rescue.
However, Chen Weicong is also an embarrassing host, in 2015, he was 51 years old at this time, and the day of glorious retirement was not far away, but he ruined his career because of an antique fraud case, and ruined his reputation for a lifetime. Unconsciously, Chen Weicong has been away from Guangdong TV for eight years, and the day of his release from prison should not be far away.
Chen Xuran, Wang Yifei and Chen Weicong were the hosts of the same period, and in 1984, he was selected by the "Family Know-it-all" program group of Zhujiang Channel, and officially joined Guangdong TV in 1986. At the beginning of her debut, she had never been able to become popular as Wang Yifei as early as Wang Yifei, and after her continuous efforts, she joined it in 1992, and then replaced Wang Yifei's position in just one year.
In the last five years of her life, Chen Xuran was the most brilliant Cantonese hostess in Guangdong, and she and Chen Weicong, the "golden boy and girl", did not know how many people's good memories they carried, but her ending was even more embarrassing than Chen Weicong, as early as 1998, she was killed by a thief, as for whether this is her real cause of death, it is unknown.
Compared with Wang Yifei, Chen Weicong, and Chen Xuran, Ren Yongquan's debut time was about three years later, although he hosted "Thousands of Purples and Thousands of Reds" shortly after his debut, but he was not as popular as the previous three at that time, and it was not until the end of the 90s that he and Wu Yan took over the banner of variety shows, and at that time it was already the era of "Cantonese Rhyme".
However, Ren Yongquan's quality is the benchmark of the entire Guangdong hosting industry, he is loyal to the profession of host, takes charity and public welfare as the second career in life, and treats love for decades. In addition, he debuted as the champion of the "Big OK Screen Master of Ceremonies Competition", and he is also outstanding in terms of hosting talent. He is 55 years old this year and is still one of the most popular hosts in Guangdong.
